Más allá de los combustibles fósiles: Transición fiscal en México

The document analyzes the fiscal dynamics of fossil fuels in Mexico, noting a decline in extraction revenues and an increase in consumption revenues. It argues for a cost-benefit analysis of continued fossil fuel reliance versus renewable alternatives and calls for increased transparency in hydrocarbon and coal revenues. The report warns against regressive generalized subsidies and highlights the tension between the administration of Andrés Manuel López Obrador's goal to increase oil extraction for energy security and the resulting environmental and social challenges.

• Revenue from fossil fuel extraction in Mexico has decreased recently, while revenue from fossil fuel consumption has become more significant.
• The administration of Andrés Manuel López Obrador intends to strengthen the hydrocarbon sector and increase oil extraction and domestic gasoline production to enhance national energy security, which creates environmental, social, and economic challenges for the energy transition.
• The report recommends avoiding generalized subsidies, describing them as a regressive policy that benefits those who need them least and carries a high opportunity cost.
